It's a property of the distribution chain. When a Kickstarter first comes out the manufacturer can afford to drop-ship an entire palette to the EU for reduced price shipping for any backers. When a product goes to the distribution chain the distributors rebundle products onto mixed palettes and ship those to the EU, which means that retailers can get it for a more reasonable price.
However, DFRPG is through those two phases now; it's almost sold out and retailers and distributors may not have any left and probably can't order any more. This means you're stuck buying it from whatever retailers have it left, for whatever price they ask for, and paying whatever shipping they require - or you just don't get the product. If you wanted it at a better price you should have gotten it sooner.
